It used to be. I hear that some towns in Bulacán still celebrate it. It’s an old Filipino tradition that doesn’t deserve to die. So me and my family try as much as we can to preserve it. It is the right thing to do.

We used to celebrate it as well when I was a kid. My papa would make sure the Christmas tree and decorations were still up on January 6. I think it’s a great tradition and if I were still in the Philippines, I would go back to celebrating it to keep it alive.
